U-20 USWNT: April 2012 Camp Roster

(Edit, 10-Apr-2012: It appears that Micaela Capelle tore her MCL during a spring game versus the University of Washington on April 1st, which was a day before the roster was released. So, that seems to be the likely reason for her absence.)

(USSoccer.com news release) Twenty-five players will be rostered for the camp, including nineteen of the twenty players from the CONCACAF Championship in Panama.
